I once visited a local store that's 100% dedicated to selling pesticides and herbicides, pest control, traps, you name it. Open to consumers, no license or ID required.
It really drove home the quiet facts: pharmaceutical companies such as Bayer and Johnson & Johnson are the same ones in charge of manufacturing modern pesticides/herbicides, and distributing them to farmers and home-improvement stores.
They're also the self-same companies who've been producing the drugs designed to execute criminals. It's interesting how they've recently sort of balked on furnishing those drugs in service of capital punishment, isn't it?
Is that particularly surprising or quiet? It seems to make sense to me that the people who are in the business of making chemicals that alter biological processes in targeted ways at given dosages are also making chemicals that alter biological processes in targeted ways at given dosages. Admittedly, I probably never thought about it specifically, but who else would be making them?
